Well havent been spending time on the forums instead I have been out enjoying the little time left with the car before It gets put away for its winter hibernation.
So I have also been playing around with the camera and the HDR stuff I think Im getting better what do you think?

Your car is amazing and your camera skills just make it even better. Where are the top down pics?

BTW and I'm sure you've been asked several times, but what size are your rear tires?

I dont think I would go any bigger as tailpipe rub and fender scruff was already an issue but has since been taken care of.

The car looks sick Rich! Once you shoot in HDR its hard to go back to normal images. What HDR merging program are you using? I'm still on the free trial of photomatix. I too have been shooting a bunch of HDR's, I'll post them up later.

P.S.- the backgrounds look great!

Whats up Paul? Havent heard from ya in a while. Is the turbo on yet or what?

I hear ya on just wanting to keep shooting the HDR stuff. Im officially addicted. LOL

Im using Photomatix pro to generate and tonemap then I bring them over into PS and Tweek a little more. At first I was into the overdone ones but now Im starting to like the middle of the road ones. Not to overdone but not totally blended either. I guess I will just keep shooting. I gotta get better at it sooner or later.

Well I should be able to avoid that since I'll be running dumps. But that's as wide as I'd be able to go on a 9" wheel.

Thanks

No, the turbo isn't on yet. I'm in the middle of swapping my AFR 185's on it though. I'm hopefully going to make it to Cecil on Nov 15th and see just how fast it'll go NA. I have a goal in my heart, but I'm not going to say in case I fall way short as its pretty lofty!


I too liked the overly done HDR images but am finding myself doing more and more of the subtle ones. Using photomatix I just use the tone mapping anymore as its usually more natural looking.
